Hey, I hear you. It’s tough dealing with RPL and ANA+ while also preparing for IVF. You’ve got a lot on your plate! Ayurveda might be a resourceful companion, but let’s break it down a bit.
The key in Ayurveda is to harmonize your doshas and strengthen your agni (digestive fire), which can be a game-changer in reproductive health. Since you’re already on HCQS for your conditions, it’s crucial not to make abrupt changes or skip it. Your conventional treatment is important. So, working alongside, Ayurveda can offer some supportive strategies.
First, let’s chat about your diet. Consider including warm, cooked foods that are easier to digest. Think kitchari, a gentle mix of rice and mung dal. Add spices like ginger and turmeric, which are warming and help boost agni. You might want to avoid raw, cold, or processed foods as they could dampen digestion.
Next, self-care or relaxing practices like Abhyanga (self-massage with warm sesame oil). Doing this once or twice a week can help soothe the nervous system and bring some calm. The mind-body connection is pretty strong, you see, and stress can impact you more than we realize.
Since you’re heading towards an embryo transfer in December, grounding practices like meditation or gentle yoga could be your allies. Even just 15 minutes a day can make a difference. Deep breathing exercises might also help, engaging that parasympathetic nervous system. It’s amazing how little things can impact our energy.
Remember though, anything you try Ayurveda-wise, sync it with your current treatment and consult your doctor. You could consider finding an Ayurvedic practitioner too, who could personalize everything even further. Tailoring each recommendation to suit your unique constitution (prakriti) would be ideal. And staying open to both systems working in harmony, you’ll set a solid foundation. Stay positive and focused. You’re doing amazing so far!
